Are you finding it challenging to secure a date in December for your company holiday party? Have you considered holding off on celebrating until January or February?
The planning team at INDUSTRY and 828 Planning in Indianapolis has found that hosting your company holiday party after the holiday season rush can offer numerous advantages.
Here are five reasons why our expert planners suggest considering a holiday party in January-February:
Post-Holiday Relaxation
December is often packed with holiday travel and family commitments, making it difficult to squeeze in another celebration. January and February, however, are much more relaxed, allowing for easier scheduling without the holiday chaos. With the stress of the holidays behind them, your colleagues will likely have more availability and feel ready to enjoy the celebration. INDUSTRY’s modern and versatile space is ideal for a relaxed, enjoyable event where your team can truly unwind.
Greater Venue Availability
December dates are highly sought after, but January and February tend to have more open availability. This flexibility means you have a broader selection of dates to choose from, especially if you’re aiming for a weekend event. At INDUSTRY, we offer a stunning industrial-chic venue that can be tailored to fit any occasion. Planning your event in January or February increases your chances of booking our in-demand space without the competition of December dates.
Cost Savings
The post-holiday months are generally off-peak for events, leading to more favorable pricing. December’s high demand can drive up costs, but hosting your party in January or February can lead to significant savings. These savings allow you to better allocate your budget or splurge on additional features for your event. Our team at INDUSTRY is skilled at optimizing budgets to create memorable and impactful events, ensuring you get the best value for your investment.
Unique Themes
January and February provide an excellent opportunity to explore creative and distinctive themes for your holiday party. Instead of traditional holiday decor, consider:
- Winter Masquerade Ball: Create an enchanting evening with elegant attire, ornate masks, and a winter wonderland ambiance featuring sparkling lights and luxurious fabrics.
- Après-Ski Lodge: Embrace the cozy charm of a ski lodge with rustic decor, warm drinks, comfort foods, and activities like a s’mores station or virtual reality skiing.
- Carnival Extravaganza: Bring the vibrant energy of a carnival to your event with bold decorations, interactive entertainment, classic carnival fare, and lively music.
Our team at INDUSTRY thrives on bringing imaginative ideas to life, ensuring your annual celebration is truly one-of-a-kind.
Improved Attendance
Once the holiday season is over, employees are more likely to be available and free from other obligations. This can lead to higher attendance rates and a more enjoyable experience for everyone involved. At INDUSTRY, we understand the importance of having your entire team present to celebrate and bond. Our venue offers multiple spaces, and can accommodate various group sizes, making it the perfect location for your event.
Kicking Off the New Year
Booking a holiday party in January or February is an excellent way to start the new year with your employees. It provides a positive boost to morale and gives everyone something exciting to look forward to after the holidays. At INDUSTRY, our expert planners are dedicated to making your event seamless and memorable.
